COMPLETE Guide to Visiting Calgary

Go to Checkout Added to cart

When we moved to Calgary many years ago, the city was primarily known for just a few things: the oil industry, the infamous Calgary Stampede, and steakhouses. And while those things are still an essential part of the city’s fabric, on every return visit since we moved away, we always marvel at its evolution and all the new things to do there.

We love exploring Calgary! And in creating this guide, we have curated our fave things to see, do, and eat, all in one place. If you are soon to visit and new to the city, this is THE guide to set you up for an excellent time.

Take the guesswork out of your trip to Cowtown (that’s “Calgary” for locals)!

For one low price, you’ll find local travel advice that you won’t find anywhere else.

Included in this ebook:

  • Details about the top sights and activities around Calgary.
  • Recommended accommodations for popular locations and varying budgets.
  • A curated list of where to eat and drink.
  • Details on top festivals, guided tours, and even day trips from the city.
  • Our advice on when to visit and tips on what to pack.
  • Direct links to booking pages, to enable easy planning.
  • A custom Google map you can launch on your phone to lead you around the city.

We acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuu T’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Métis Homeland.
